The Dynamics are all solid wood and if you like your FG, I highly recommend you give any Dynamics you may come across a spin..they are fabulous little guitars.

I've never heard of Dynamics. I'll look for that. It appears like you live where thay are made????

Yes, the bridge needs to be lowered on most of them.

Hey tuuur. It's good to see you on this forum too. That's a nice one you have pictured. Mine had the exact same truss rod cover. Those frets do not last very well.

I had a 72-73 Yamaha 360 that was a great box. Wish I hadn't had to sell it. A real quality workhorse for the dough.
Great coming out of the closet story...:)

Thanks. Well I wouldn't say I mastered it, but I got it done.
I hear you, more seller regrets.
